Damned If You "Boo" And Damned If You Don't

This morning on Air America, Thom Hartmann played an audio clip from FOX news in which the reporter raised the possibility that the California wildfires could be Al Qaeda attacks. She cites alleged testimony from an Al Qaeda-linked detainee who claimed that they were considering as their next wave of terrorism could be starting wildfires in the U.S.
Now, let's set aside for the time being the absurdity of wildfires as a terrorist tactic.
Let's say, for the sake of argument that it was true.
Now FOX news has the uncomfortable task of reporting that the president was unable to protect the citizens of the U.S. from a terrorist attack. They now have to admit that "fighting them over there so we won't have to fight them over here" is a failed policy.
Hop to it FOX. I await your follow up reports.
